What is EQ? In the early 1990s, Dr. John Mayer, Ph.D., and Dr. Peter Salovey, Ph.D., introduced the term “emotional intelligence” in the Journal of Personality Assessment. They used this term to describe a person’s ability to understand his or her own emotions and the emotions of others and to act properly based on this understanding. Then in 1995, psychologist Daniel Goleman popularized this term with his book Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ.

    EQ gives you a competitive advantage. Even at Bell Labs, where everyone is smart, studies find that the most respected and productive engineers are those with the special qualities of emotional intelligence quotient — it’s not necessary for them to have the highest IQ. Having a high IQ may make you an excellent expert or a legal scholar, but a highly developed emotional intelligence quotient will make you a candidate （候選人）for a leader or a brilliant lawyer. EQ can make it more likely that your marriage will be successful. Lack of EQ shows why people with high IQ can be such bad pilots of their personal lives.

    The study shows that these men with high IQ also lack these emotional abilities: suffering from being criticized and misunderstood, shy and uncomfortable, emotionally stimulated（激勵）. Compared with those men with high IQ, these men (with high EQ) are calm and friendly, who are loyal to people and careers, have lots of sympathy with and care for others, with a rich but suitable emotional life  — they’re comfortable with themselves, others, and the human society they live in.

    Is your intelligence the greatest predictor of what you'll achieve in life? We have believed that IQ is the best measure of human potential for so many years. In the past 10 years, however, researchers have found that isn't necessarily the case---that in fact, your EQ might be a greater predictor of success.

   High IQ may help you the father of science fiction, but it won’t make you a respected person. High EQ can help you more.

1.What can we learn from the second paragraph?

 A In daily life and work, EQ is more important than IQ.

 B High IQ will have a bad effect on people’s lives.

 C It’s not necessary for people to have a high IQ.

 D You’d better develop your intelligence well in order to be a leader.

2.The underlined sentence “this isn’t necessarily the case” in Paragraph 4 means here that ____.

 A your IQ is a greater predictor of success

 B success is dependent on your IQ

 C your EQ can predict your success better

 D human potential is up to your IQ

3.From the text, it can be inferred that ____

 A high IQ can help you work better and succeed more easily

While IQ (Intelligence Quotient) tells you how smart you are. EQ (Emotional Quotient) tells you how well you use your smartness. Professor Salovery, the psychologist who created the term EQ, says that it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you promoted.

Supported by his research, he suggested that when predicting future successes, a person's brainpower, as measured by IQ tests, might actually matter less than a person's character, or EQ. Professor Salovery may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the best and smartest students in your class end up failing exams? Perhaps it is because of their EQ. People often make the mistake of thinking that EQ is the opposite of IQ. It is not. Although it is hoped that people have both high EQs and IQs, there is little doubt that those with low EQs have a hard time surviving in life.

For a long time, researchers discussed if a person's IQ could be raised. The geneticists said no, while the social scientists said yes. Furthermore, the social scientists said that it was possible to improve a person's EQ, particularly in terms of “people skills”， such as understanding and communication.

Recently, a professor released the findings of a study on senior high school students. When some normal students were introduced to some disabled students, they found that afterwards they were more willing to help people in difficulties. At the same time, there was a marked change in the disabled students' attitudes. They became more positive about their disabilities and were more eager to try new things. People with high EQs often have positive attitudes towards life and are open to different ideas, so they tend to be more creative in their thinking. Please remember that having a high IQ is helpful but having a high EQ might even be more helpful.

1. According to Professor Salovery，what factor matters the most in predicting whether a person will be successful or not?

A. How a person tests his/her brainpower.

B. A person's character.

C. How smart a person is.

D. A person's IQ.

2. The second paragraph tells us that ________.

A. people who have a high IQ always have a high EQ

B. EQ is the opposite of IQ

C. people who have a low EQ tend to have a hard life

D. people who have a high EQ always have a high IQ

3. What did the professor find from his study of normal students being introduced to some disabled children?

A. Students with disabilities were not open in trying new things.

B. There was no change in the normal students.

C. The disabled students became more positive and more eager to try new things.

D. The disabled students were more willing to help others.

4. Which of the following is the writer's attitude toward EQ and IQ?

A. IQ is more helpful to people than EQ.

B. IQ can be raised by understanding and communication.

C. EQ can get people hired.

D. A high EQ is of great benefit in getting people promoted.

5. Which of the following would be the BEST title of this passage?

A. A person's brainpower.

B. IQ, EQ and success.

C. IQ and a person's character.

D. A person's IQ and EQ.
